I think it's "Intelligence is the ability to adapt to change". i understood that, what got me puzzled is that statement has nothing to do with intelligence.

abarbarian Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Lions eat 'rhino poachers' on South African game reserve Sibuya reserve owner Nick Fox said in a statement on the reserve's Facebook page that the suspected poachers entered the reserve late on Sunday night or early on Monday morning. "They strayed into a pride of lions - it's a big pride so they didn't have too much time," Mr Fox told AFP news agency. "We're not sure how many there were - there's not much left of them." Now that is a fine example of karma in action. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry about that :'( . Link works for me. Nowt to apologise for. All resolved with help from good folk. It was a very interesting read. Sensors buried a mile deep in ice picking up details of objects so small. Sounds like a si-fi movie plot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebrke Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 As far as I'm concerned, most of particle physics sounds like a fantasy story (i.e., there are six types quarks, known as flavors: up, down, strange, charm, bottom, and top), but it's fascinating if you can get a writer who can make it somewhat understandable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abarbarian Posted July 27, 2018 Share Posted July 27, 2018 A.I. Can Track Humans Through Walls With Just a Wifi Signal The Machines now have X-ray vision. A new piece of software has been trained to use wifi signals — which pass through walls, but bounce off living tissue — to monitor the movements, breathing, and heartbeats of humans on the other side of those walls. The researchers say this new tech’s promise lies in areas like remote healthcare, particularly elder care, but it’s hard to ignore slightly more dystopian applications. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
